Climate Change (1 ESO A & B)

After receiving information about this topic in their Biology classes, 1 ESO students have been making projects about climate change and how to stop its consequences. They have been helped in this task by our language assistants, Jazmin Robles and Nick Mosley. All the projects will be exhibited in their classroom and in the corridor next to their classes.

CHRISTMAS PERFORMANCE.

Just before Christmas, students of different groups performed some songs with percussion instruments and body percussion. Some examples:

JINGLE BELL ROCK
SANTA TELL ME
AL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU

1º Bachillerato students

1° Bachillerato students were asked to make a video about what they usually do during winter holidays,we called it that way because of the different religions/ beliefs our students have.
The video had to be made in pairs because they were able to exchange ideas and performing could be more fun too.
They have enjoyed carrying out this assignment and all of them have said to feel more confident speaking English , which was one of our aims.

Merry Christmas and a Peaceful 2023!

As usual, we have celebrated the end of the year with several activities in all the courses which participate in the Bilingual Programme. During this month, our language assistants Jazmin Robles and Nick Mosley have been giving talks about the way this festivity is celebrated in their hometowns. They have also prepared activities like an escape room, carols and games related to Christmas time. Our students have had a great time learning about foreign traditions.

In the following image you can see Jazmin, our language assistant, who has been telling 4 ESO students about Christmas in the USA. They have also played bingo to practise Christmas songs as well as Christmas riddles to improve vocabulary related to this topic. We want to thank Jasmine for preparing such entertaining and funny classes.

The 1º ESO students have created the perfect background with their Music teacher. You probably have listened to their carols which have been sounding in the nearby corridors during these last class days.

We have also organized the Christmas Cards competition with 1st and 2nd ESO. You can look at all these wonderful cards on the Bilingual Board next to the entrance.

The 3rd ESO students have made some Christmas Bookmarks to illustrate different features of this cheerful holiday.

And finally, our 4 ESO students want to wish us all the best for this time of the year by reciting some Christmas poems. We hope you like them!

.WE WISH YOU MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Music and your Mind

4 ESO students have been learning about different issues related to music: how music can bring people together, different types of music, how they feel when they listen to music and how to talk about their favourite singer or band. Some of them have made very interesting posters about the effects of music in our brain. You can watch examples on the main board of the corridor. Hope you like them!

25 N : International Day against Gender-based Violence

1 and 2 IB students have made up posters and leaflets in English and French to send clear messages against gender violence . We hope actions like these ones can raise awareness about this problem which affects to so many people worldwide. This activity is made with the collaboration of the Equality and Diversity programme which has also planned different events to fight against gender-based violence.

A Sightseeing Tour

Last 17 November, 1 IB students showed the most relevant places in Almería (the Cathedral, the shelters, Alcazaba, the old square, etc) to 4 ESO students. IB students performed the roles of members of travel agencies and described these places and answered the students´ questions about anecdotes and events in those iconic places. It was an interesting activity to learn more about our city and share knowledge and experiences

.

Halloween Scrolls

This activity was done by 2º ESO B and C and 2º Bach A students to celebrate Halloween in a funny and scary way: reading horror stories and poems. The students had fun while making them and they encourage all the students who want to participate to read one of these scary scrolls next to the Engllish Department.

Halloween 2022 : Origin, Traditions and Customs

Our language asistant, Nick Mosley, has been explaining very interesting facts about the origin of Halloween and other customs such as Trick or treat and Jack -O’-lantern to 4 ESO students.

After that, they have played Kahoot to practise the things they have learnt.

We wish everyone a Happy Halloween!!!

Vindicating Don Juan Tenorio

3º ESO C students have made some research to find out about the Spanish tradition in All Saints´ Day (or All Hallows´

Day), a festivity which has been forgotten due to the popularity of festivities from other cultures at the same time. The purpose of this activity was to claim the important role of our traditions which can coexist with customs from other cultures. The origin of the word “Halloween” comes from the expression “All Hallows´ Eve”.
